When they said the lights
went out in Georgia
They were off by at least one
degree
The lights did not go out in Georgia
They went out in Tennessee
Tennessee Valley Authority
blew out the generator
Sent shock waves through the
valley and the plains
Leaving folks without air
condition or a refrigerator
Such inconveniences as one
expects with hurricanes
They had a big concert on
that night in Nashville
The guest of honor was our
own Big Tom
The amplification overloaded the grid to Clarksville
There was an explosion they
all thought it was a bomb
In Tennessee
Except for those gathered
round a homely fire
Even Elvis and his hips were
not out there swinging
You can check that out with
Reba McEntyre
They say Vicki Lawrence made
up that Georgia
To get away from Carol
Burnett’s crazy crew
I think she’s the one who
should have gone to jail
She was tired of Tim Conway’s
elephant in the Zoo.
